My old S8+ phone's battery has expanded and separated the case back from the front. I need to get a new battery and glue it back together again. Any suggestions as to what type of glue I should use?
I upgraded to a z-fold but kept this as a backup as the trade-in value was negligible. And it's still a good phone!
